They are likely related - the VFO is not at the correct frequency - so
resolve that first before attempting a TUNE or transmit again.
Your problem is likely a bad solder connection - open the schematic
diagram to RF Board sheet 1 and check each component shown in the top
section of that page. Check both for correct value, component
orientation, and good soldering.
Since it once worked OK, I would wager you will find a bad solder somewhere.
